I did this and all seems well on this login now.

Logout of the desktop, in the login screen hit Ctrl-Alt-F1
login with username and password
do
rm ~/.config/kwallet*
rm ~/.kde4/share/config/kwallet*
rm -rf ~/.kde4/share/apps/kwallet
rm -rf ~/.local/share/kwallet*
exit
Next hit Ctrl-Alt-F7 and login. kwallet should make a clean start now.
